My Mulder jersey arrived!!!
5 April 2005But no pictures yet of the jersey. I’ll take some very soon. 😀

Bobby Crosby in his “baseball players aren’t as hot as movie stars” commercial…
When I saw this commercial, I busted up. It was such a cute thing. Nice smile. 😉

Shots from yesterday’s game: Byrnes, Bobby, Zito, Swisher
The Cardinals won today. Woohoo! I think I get a postgame alert for them, but nothing so far. Bah! We listened to the game on the way home. XM radio RULES! 😛
And in other personal, baseball related news, the hubby and I are owners of luxury suites for six A’s games this season! Yeehaw! Our first game is the 17th of April. I’ll let you all know how it goes. My life is GOOD. We must stop spoiling ourselves. LOL!

Zito during today’s game…
Okay fine, they lost. But it’s only one game. Right? 😉 I’m not too worried.
Alas for Bobby Crosby though. Upper back pain? 🙁
In other baseball news, we’re going to the Nuts game on Thursday night. Yeah, the Modesto Nuts. Most of the time I think it’s hilarious. But then I realize that if I want to support the team, I’m going to have to wear Nuts gear. Bah!
Day one of the diet went all right. Still need to eat dessert. 😉
Quickie before bed…
3 April 2005Tomorrow begins the 2005 season for my Oakland Athletics. They open in Baltimore. I hope I remember to TiVo it. Bah!
And tomorrow I begin something I’ve never tried. A diet. Ye gods! Oh well, at least I’ll be eating more during the day. Maybe I won’t be so hungry at lunch time. 😉
Time for bed!!!
And so time passes…

“I’ll Take You On” – Howie Day
I’m not sure what I should say. I know that many of us mourn the passing of the Pope, but I am only sad that he had to suffer so much. I truly believe he is in a much better place, the Heaven he envisioned welcomes him with open arms. And so I wish him safe journey. I’m sure he’s already there…

Is it the hair?… Byrnes, Haren, Kielty, Zito from today’s game
Today was the last day of preseason for my A’s. And they ended it on a good note. 🙂 Oh, and Rich Harden is locked with the team until at least 2008. Good times, good times. Love it!
The “Old Man” aka Barry Zito commercial is HILARIOUS! I saw it at the official A’s site. I’m sure it looks better on regular tv. Zito is a NUT. I say that with much affection, of course.

New shots of William Gregory Lee
I love being a show off. Aren’t those shots just lovely? I filtered them (film grain), but they still look good, eh? 😉 If you’d like to see the original pics, you can check out the gallery section of William Gregory Lee Online. Thank you to the one who sent them to me…
I created a new personal email address at my domain because I am so tired of getting JUNK at my email addys. I’m hoping to wean everyone off of my other infested email addresses. We’ll see. Online I’m going to switch to one of my gmail accounts. I just need to figure out which one I want to pass out here at Moonlit Jazz. 😛 Maybe I should just go with MoonlitJazz. LOL! Yeah, that’s it! 😉 (Please note the new email addy here…)
Anyhoo, after I emailed my family and friends, I received a few emails back. It was great to hear from all of them! Heard from my favorite fella (you know, besides the hubby and Mulder), my aunt in Seattle, a former co-worker, and an online buddy. I also got mailer daemons back, which led me to search online for a particular person. She was one of the “priestesses” in our Temple of Ares days and I discovered her blog! If she doesn’t mind and if she gives me permission, I’m going to add her link here. And even if I don’t get to add her, I’m still going to read her. LOL!

Matchups for game one on Tuesday…
One more day, then it’s BASEBALL SEASON! Am I excited? HELL YEAH! 😀 I’ll be back to blogging every game day. Groovay!
Happy April 1st!
1 April 2005The A’s at Giants game is on. Picture sucks, but I’ve got it on. MY BOYS!!! 😀

Saarlo0s, Byrnes, Kotsay, Chavez
I almost stayed up for the end of last night’s game but I fell asleep before the end of it. Bummer they lost. Bah!
The game is currently tied. I’m hoping the A’s win, but since it’s merely preseason, I won’t worry about it too much. 😉
We watched last night’s CSI ep after we got home from work. Since I’m a sucker, I took some shots. Here’s one:

Nicky and Warrick
HD rocks. Doesn’t that picture look good? Yah!
I love my new eyes. I love that I can wear regular sunglasses. It’s so weird looking in the mirror and seeing the color of my eyes. If you wear glasses, especially the transition kind, you might know what I mean. My transition glasses had a tint and I never really noticed the color of my eyes if I had my glasses on…
April is here. The fourth month of the year is my most favorite month. I don’t know why. Is it because it’s the first full month of spring, my favorite season? Or is it that baseball, my favorite sport, begins? Both those reasons and maybe more…
Waiting for baseball to start
30 March 2005I missed a Mulder picture from last week. Ye gods! All baseball boys following credited to AP. 🙂 I must just show off my favorites.

From last Thursday’s game…

Yesterday’s game…

And one more…

Zito today…

Bobby got hit by a pitch!!! Bastards!!!
I read that Bobby was injured in today’s game. I am thinking good thoughts for him but I’m also mad that it happened. BASTARDS!!!
South Park rules. LOL! I’m watching the PSP episode. 😉 “Hail the Golden PSP.” You know, those South Park boys are CRAZY…
Nashville Star has lost two viewers…
29 March 2005Yes, we watch Nashville Star and tonight was our last ep of the season. The viewers are MORONS for *not* voting to keep Tamika. She was the most talented contestant on the show but the clowns who produce the show “edited” for drama and the people who voted assumed something about Tamika that wasn’t true. Unfortunately her talent wasn’t enough to overcome the ignorance of the Nashville Star viewing audience and she was voted off. How can I watch a show that willfully deceits its viewers? And how can I be part of an audience who’d rather listen to the talking bits than the music? I think people just wanted an excuse to vote off Tamika because they construe her confidence with cockiness and heaven forbid an Australian woman dare to sing country music better than some country stars out there.
Yeah, I’m ranting about the country music version of American Idol. LOL!
Time for bed or something like that. 😉
